Products and services
Counselling for children and young people
We provide counselling for children and young people who may be struggling with how they feel, or may be having problems with friends, family or school. Children and young people come to counselling for various reasons, and it offers a space to think about how they feel and to help them with these feelings. Visit our website for more information about our counselling services for children young people.
Adult counselling
We work with individual adults and with couples. Our services are provided regardless of gender identity, ability, sexual orientation, race, ethnicity, belief or faith. Whilst we try to be inclusive, we are not able to provide the kind of specialist help needed for chronic and enduring mental health issues. Nor can we work with addictions; there are agencies that are better equipped to support people whose primary difficulties are with drug and alcohol issues. We signpost people where necessary, and you can find various agencies in the community that provide alternative sources of help and advice on our resources page. Visit our website for further details.
Employee Counselling Service
The Employee Counselling Service (ECS) operated by Cogwheel provides prompt access to short-term counselling (6 or 10 sessions) for employees working in a variety of organisations and businesses.
Many situations, whether personal or job-related, have an impact on emotional well-being, and the Employee Counselling Service provides somewhere safe and confidential for staff to turn to when they are in emotional distress.
We can help with worry, stress, burnout, depression, family or relationship problems and other mental health issues that an employee could be experiencing. Counselling can enable positive changes to take place, leading to a healthier, happier and more hopeful outlook.
